ABOUT

I'm a motivated self-starting developer and a new technology enthusiast who's eager to challenge and sharpen my technology expertise. Because of my electrical engineering background, I tend to understand the world in engineer's way: figuring out how things work. I love dealing with problems not only in the digital world but also in the real physical world.

PORTFOLIO

3D Printer

Look at this good-looking awesome custom build 3D printer! It is the first 3D printer I have built based on open-source hardware design shared by Ultimaker, one of the best 3D printer company in the world. All the plastic parts (yellow, blue, white parts) are printered from another 3D printer and I purchased every other custom parts from various different sources. Modifications has been made to accomondate my own needs such as lighting, acrylic panels, hotend, etc. I have been printing large amount of interesting gadgets using this printer and shared them away to my friends and family. Maybe you want something to be printed for you, ask me. :)





Drone

Playing drones has tons of fun! I built this 250 sized racing drone from scratch. It is too big and dangerous to fly indoor so I built/modified many other smaller ones to have fun indoor. I started out with DJI Phantom and did lots of aerial photography for my own pleasure and was dragged into FPV racing drone by a friend. Start with simulator like FreeRider to practice your flying skill before crashing anything!





Vinli - Connected Car Platform

Vinli is a project that I did when worked for Dialexa LLC as an electrical Engineer. It is a connected car platform device that integrates LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPS with OBD. The server platform can enable many applications software wise when interacts with this device and bring cars to internet era. It was a chanllenging project and I prototyped the device in about 10 months and worked on testing and validation during it's initial phase of production run. Click the link below to check it out!
